BirthdaysMy best birthday so far was my 30th, when I held a Polish Bear Hunting evening in some woods - everyone dressed up in hunting gear, ate a Polish hunting stew round a big fire and then, armed with torches, ran out to find the foil-wrapped chocolate bears I'd hidden in the trees.
My worst so far was my first at university - my birthday was the first official day of term, so I thought there'd be loads of people there to have fun with. No, Cambridge is so posh nobody actually turns up on the first night. I got very drunk with the barman.
What extremes of birthdays have you had?

*rant*the last decent birthday i had was when i was 12, cant remember what i did, but it has to have been better than these 3.
on my 13th, my mum had topped herself about a month before so i didnt really feel up for, well, anything (cheers mum).
for my 16th i was told i could leave home just because i didnt want to talk to my dad about the fact that my friend andrew had just killed himself. i think you'll agree that his making me feel like it was my fault his girlfriend was about to leave him, even tho it was because he was beating her, is reason enough to not want to talk to him.
my 18th, was meant to be going out for a nice dinner with a load of school friends once school had started again (boarding school+ birthday in the easter hols=faff), they ALL bailed on me. went to a restaurant on the actual day, and the waitress got my order wrong, so i was really hungry, and everyone else was tucking in. at least no-one had died. eh?
20th, told the now-ex (cnut cnut cnut) that it was going to be fancy dress a MONTH before the party. 3 hours after he's supposed to have arrived i ring him and he's only just started his costume (cnut cnut cnut).
it seems to be that i'm having 3 do's for my 21st, so one of them HAS to be good, right? right?
